Are you tired of starting from Zero every month?
Why does building business momentum seem so elusive? Do you feel at times as if you are wading through a vat of molasses or as in young people speak – “yuh sticking?” Many business owners could well attest to peaks and troughs in their business but I am describing not even feast or famine but…

What is failure really?
Failure is one of those F words that we have grown to hate. Can you think of how many times you thought YOU were a failure?
